  1. 1. Welds in the lean duplex stainless steel LDX 2101 : effect of microstructure and weld oxides on corrosion properties

    Author : Elin M. Westin; John Ågren; KTH; []
    Keywords : ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; Duplex stainless steel; welding; weld metal; HAZ; nitrogen; manganese; austenite formation; phase balance; precipitates; pitting resistance; heat input; solidification; element loss; evaporation; deposition; weld oxides; discoloration; mechanical properties; thermo-mechanical simulation; Geeble; GTA; laser; LOM; SEM; EDS; TEM; Leco; EPMA; ferroxyl test; XPS; post weld cleaning; pickling; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : Duplex stainless steels are a very attractive alternative to austenitic grades due to their higher strength and good corrosion performance. The austenitic grades can often be welded autogenously, while the duplex grades normally require addition of filler metal. READ MORE

  2. 2. Computational weld mechanics : Towards simplified and cost effective FE simulations

    Author : Ayjwat Awais Bhatti; Zuheir Barsoum; Lennart Josefson; KTH; []
    Keywords : ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : It is the demand of the world’s ever increasing energy crisis to reduce fuel consumption wherever possible. One way of meeting this demand is by reducing the weight of a structure by replacing thick plates of low strength steel with thin plates of high strength steel in the structure. READ MORE

  3. 3. Microstructure and properties of welds in the lean duplex stainless steel LDX 2101

    Author : Elin M. Westin; John Ågren; Hannu Hänninen; KTH; []
    Keywords : ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Duplex stainless steel; welding; HAZ; nitrogen; manganese; microstructure; austenite formation; phase balance; precipitates; element distribution; segregation; depletion; solidification; pitting corrosion resistance; solidification; element loss; evaporation; deposition; weld oxide; thermo-mechanical simulation; thermodynamic modelling; EPMA; XPS; post-weld cleaning; pickling; Metallurgical process and manufacturing engineering; Metallurgisk process- och produktionsteknik;

    Abstract : Duplex stainless steels can be very attractive alternatives to austenitic grades due to their almost double strength at equal pitting corrosion resistance. When welding, the duplex alloys normally require addition of filler metal, while the commodity austenitic grades can often be welded autogenously. READ MORE

  4. 4. Fatigue strength of welds in 800 MPa yield strength steels : Effects of weld toe geometry and residual stress

    Author : Ebrahim Harati; Lars-Erik Svensson; Leif Karlsson; Högskolan Väst; []
    Keywords : ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fatigue strength; Residual stress; Welds; Weld toe geometry; High strength steel; Weld Impression Analysis; Laser Scanning Profiling; Structured Light Projection; Manufacturing and materials engineering; Produktions- och materialteknik;

    Abstract : Nowadays there is a strong demand for lighter vehicles in order to increase the pay load. Through this the specific fuel consumption is decreased, the amount of greenhouse gases is lowered and the transport economy improved. One possibility to optimize the weight is to make the components from high strength steels and join them by welding. READ MORE

  5. 5. Static and fatigue analyses of welded steel structures : some aspects towards lightweight design

    Author : Mansoor Khurshid; Zuheir Barsoum; Lars-Erik Lindgren; KTH; []
    Keywords : ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fatigue strength; welded joints; static strength; high strength steel; Farkostteknik; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Aerospace Engineering; Flyg- och rymdteknik;

    Abstract : The objectives of this thesis comprise of overcoming the challenges in designing lightweight welded structures such as material selection, choice of fatigue design methods, and increased performance by using improvement techniques. Material selection of welded joints is dependent on the filler and base material strengths. READ MORE
